Get Paid to Test Web and Mobile Application

To test a software application/app, you will need to download and install the application/app to your PC or Smartphone and follow the test instruction to perform the test. After completion of testing, you will need to go through a post test survey or write your feedback, and then you will get paid for the testing work.
